For clarification, what if it was an existing file? I modified it, but never
saved about two hours worth of work. My autorecovery interval is set to
every 10 minutes. Why are there no recovery files in the folder for this
interval of time?

Nope.

If you never saved it, all the changes are gone.

I am using WinXP home edition and Excel in Office 2000. I inadvertly closed
an excel doc without saving changes thinking I was closing the earlier
version of the doc. Needless to say I was terribly disapointed to find I
closed the wrong version of the doc. Is there any way to retrieve the doc
with the changes made to it.
